25.01.2022 A warm welcome to Will Graham. Will is enjoying our intensive aerobatics and spin prevention / recovery course with CFI, Colin Appleton. He's used to life on a large cattle station so flying over the beautiful Sunshine Coast beaches is an added bonus to the experience of learning to fly an aircraft accurately in 3 dimensions. Watch this space for videos clips on his progress.

21.01.2022 In perfect weather conditions, our 2nd 2020 Aerobatics Coaching / Practice day held at Gympie Aero Club was a great success. All who took part in the coaching flights gained valuable pre-competition experience.. The program ended with a friendly competition flight. The results were: 1st Place - Cooper McClymont, 2nd place Craig Simpson, and 3rd place Chris Burdett (who bravely flew 'in pain' with a strapped up and very sprained wrist). See you at the next Coaching / Practice Day in September 2020

11.01.2022 What's it like to fly competition aerobatics? Richard Stracey recently completed his aerobatics endorsement and I convinced him to join the SCFS team and enter the 2020 QLD State Aerobatics Championships.

06.01.2022 A warm welcomes to Ben Floyd, our latest aerobatics course student. Ben travelled down from near Darwin to do aerobatics with us. Ben has a CPL and plenty of flying experience but he's finding aerobatics and spin training with our CFI Colin Appleton to be a whole new and exciting experience. We'll post some video clips of Ben's progress later in the week.
06.01.2022 THE ULTIMATE THRILL RIDE! - You will experience neck numbing, adrenaline flooding aerial ballet in our awesome Extra 300 stunt plane. Be warned! With 'G' forces reaching up to +7G, you’ll be struggling to stay conscious, but it's an experience you will remember for the rest of your life!
05.01.2022 Congratulations to our Aerobatics Team who came away from the 2020 Queensland State Aerobatic Championships at Watts Bride this weekend with 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in the Graduate Category, flying our fantastic Robin R2160. - 3rd place went to Chris Burdett, who flew exceptionally well considering he had the handicap of a broken wrist! - 2nd place went to Richard Stracey and 1st place to Cooper McClymont. Here's the video of Cooper's 1st round flight. More videos and photos to follow! Well done guys!
03.01.2022 We are pleased to welcome David Drummond to our instructing team. David will be helping our 'over-worked' CFI, Colin Appleton, with aerobatics training, RPC to RPL conversions, Flight Reviews and much more! David is a Grade 1 GA instructor and former Virgin Australia check captain. He loves aerobatics so should fit right in at SCFS! Initially David will be available most days from 02:00pm. We are excited to have David on board, he will provide additional capacity and flexibility for all our aerobatics course students! Call the GoFly Office or Colin directly to book your next aerobatics lesson with David or Colin
03.01.2022 It's great to teach aerobatics to a pilot with stamina! Terry Livanidis had a fantastic time last week on our 4 day intensive aerobatics course with CFI Colin Appleton. The average flight endurance, for pilots new to aerobatics, is typically 45 minutes to one hour flight time per lesson. Terry was enjoying each lesson so much he didn't want to stop and managed 1.5 hours and more per lesson. This helped him complete most of the course before the low cloud and rain set in from Wednesday. He's back late next week to finish off! Well done Terry! Like Terry, be a pilot that never stops learning! Aerobatics and spin recovery training WILL improve your general flying skills, making you a safer and more confident pilot. It's great fun too! https://www.sunshinecoastflyingschool.com.au//Advanced-Han Call us: 07 56606525
02.01.2022 Congratulations to Ben Floyd on completing our aerobatics course and gaining his AERO and SPIN Endorsements with our CFI, Colin Appleton.
